Dad’s Hat Pennsylvania Rye

Dad’s Hat rye has evolved like many craft whiskeys but they’re still bottling at 6 to 9 months (another label is planned for a straight version). That’s working well. The nose is rip-roaring rye: crushed grain grass sweet spice bitter herbal notes with all the complexity of the grain. Delivers honestly on the tongue too plus a light barrel character proceeding to an integrated finish. Excellent young rye there’s no mistaking the mother grain.
